Wassup! :P 2008

Its been eight long years since the boys said, "Wassup!" to each other. Even with the effects of a down economy and imminent change in the White House, they're still able to come together and stay true to what really matters.

Brian, same here! I loved the Wayans brothers parody of the commercial. Steve Carell also referenced it in the very first episode of "The Office". He was way late in making fun of it, however (the ep aired in 2005).

That's what is so great about our military. Everyone is looking ahead with the same vision in mind for each mission. All the barriers -- race, creed, sex orientation, etc. are set aside. That's how our military should be run and unfortunately, you have those who can practice and use their political persuasions who abuse their power -- i.e. generals and colonels. Great post! Nervous going into this final week about Obama's chances?

This is encouraging. I'm just confident he'll hold serve in those traditional blue states and will carry at least a few Western or Southern states. That's all he needs. I don't want to get too overconfident. Take a look at my latest sports picks as a disastrous example. This is just a tad more important, and I do feel confident and not to be confused with cocky.

About Me

My parents told me I was born in Wiesbaden, Germany in November of 1970 (I'll have to take their word for it since I don't recall). My father was in the Air Force back then and was in a number of altercations as opposed to yours truly who's a bit of a sissy boy. In 1973, we returned to the States (I don't recall this, either) and lived in Minnesota. I had a good childhood. Like most boys my age, I was a huge Star Wars fan. My teenage years were rough, especially after my mom divorced my father in 1984. I was quite a late bloomer and didn't even have a first date until I was 22. I've lived in Rochester with my life partner for more than a decade and quite enjoy it. My favorite restaurant is Friday's. I've no kids and am not sure if I will have any in this lifetime. I'd probably be more inclined to do so if it were possible for children to remember the day they were born so they didn't just have to take their parents' word for it.

"Thomas is my type of guy and he'll be your type of guy, too. His mind is a never ending pool of information and he is willing to share every single ounce of it with his readers. He takes the time to observe life and absorb every minute of it and when he writes about it, you fully understand that he is a superhuman.

Thomas is one of those great people who makes you want to be around him all of the time. He's extremely intelligent and thoughtful, empathetic and honest. Just reading his blog makes you feel like you have found a friend for life. And.... you will want to marry him and have his babies. Because he's THAT awesome."
